Gdańsk New Town Hall, Administrative building in Gdańsk, Poland

The Gdańsk New Town Hall features Renaissance Revival architecture with a brick construction, crowned by a prominent tower displaying intricate design elements.

The building originated between 1327 and 1336, with major expansions occurring in 1378 under Henryk Ungerdin's direction to accommodate growing administrative needs.

The town hall served as a center for civic ceremonies, including the reception of King Alexander Jagiellon in 1504, marking its role in municipal governance.

The structure houses the Historical Museum of Gdańsk, offering visitors access to preserved artworks, furnishings, and an observation gallery during summer months.

After a fire in 1556, Dutch architects integrated Renaissance elements into the building's design, creating a fusion of architectural styles evident today.
